Abstract :
A new topology of a high voltage source with a variable output pulse pattern and featuring an independent adjustment of the magnitude, repetition frequency and pulse duration is presented. The power stage of the source consists of eight individual unipolar sources that can be arbitrarily connected in series to obtain the desired output voltage pulse of several amps and with extremely high du/dt
